Why the Vatican is at war with Maga ft.trib.al/9GHnVFa | opinion

“Secretaries of State and other election administrators are busy running our democracy and calling balls and strikes, and the president is trying to change the rules in the middle of the game because he’s worried he might lose." - @CiscoForNevada, Chair democracydocket.com/news-alerts/tr…

It never fails. Kristi Noem's banging Cory Lewandowski, her husband's banging dudes, while wearing fake boobs, & they're preaching to us about the sanctity of marriage & Christian family values.

@KerryDonovanCO @GabeforColorado @jeff4colorado @laurenboebert @RepJeffCrank You too can do your part to support lies, grift, and bimbofication.

Let’s all vote MAGA this fall…Amiright? Because who needs Medicare or Medicaid when we have war and rising prices!! Woohoo!!!! Great work @GabeforColorado @jeff4colorado @laurenboebert and @RepJeffCrank super proud of you guys.

Thank you @AAGDhillon for getting trump to the Supreme Court oral argument today. Worked out exactly as I predicted.

BREAKING: In a powerful moment, Chef Jose Andres just slammed Donald Trump’s efforts to eliminate birthright citizenship. This is amazing.

@Daffy_dill_ @steadystate2025 The best moron, a really great moron, there's no other moron as moronic, he's the supreme leader of the morons.

@steadystate2025 He is such a moron!

Hold on to this for when a cyber attack happens. Especially with most CISA employees furloughed right now. #holdfast

🚨🚨🚨 NEW: Last night, Trump signed an executive order targeting vote-by-mail nationwide. Mail voting is safe, secure, and widely used. Democratic Secretaries of State - including DASS Chair @CiscoForNevada - will fight this unconstitutional attack on the right to vote.

@steadystate2025 Have we reached the "If you won't participate in my war crimes you are my enemy too" stage of Trump's illegal war?

Trump calls France “VERY UNHELPFUL” because they wouldn’t let him use French skies to move weapons into another conflict zone. In his worldview, allied sovereignty only exists when it serves U.S. escalation.

@MartinHeinrich Illegal conduct.

Trump will do anything to hold onto power–except work for you. I am committed to protecting New Mexicans’ right to vote and I will fight this, the SAVE Act, and anything else he wants to throw our way.

@Gianl1974 In the gas chamber camps they had bunks and fresh air.

ICE guards are betting on which detainee will kill themselves next. The AP just exposed the savage conditions of a detention camp in El Paso. The Associated Press got inside Camp East Montana. What they found should be on the front page of every newspaper in this country until it closes. About 3,000 people packed in per day. Loud, unsanitary quarters crawling with insects. Food so scarce that detainees steal from each other just to eat. Disease spreading through filthy rooms, showers, and restrooms that go uncleaned. People losing weight. People unable to see a doctor. People losing their minds. Staff made nearly one 911 call per day in the camp's first five months. One call captures a man sobbing after being assaulted by another detainee. Another has a doctor describing a man banging his head against a wall while expressing suicidal thoughts. A nurse calls about a pregnant woman in severe pain with coronavirus. Detainees suffering seizures, some resulting in serious head trauma. Ages ranged from a 19-year-old who fell from a bunk to a 79-year-old who couldn't breathe. And then there's the detail that should haunt this administration for the rest of its existence. Owen Ramsingh, a former property manager from Columbia, Missouri, who spent weeks in the camp before being deported to the Netherlands, told the AP he overheard a security guard talking about a betting pool among the staff. They were wagering on which detainee would be next to die by suicide. The guard said he had put $500 in. The total pot rode on the outcome. Ramsingh said the talk was particularly devastating because he had contemplated suicide himself. Guards are gambling on the deaths of people in their custody. People who are hungry. People who are sick. People who are begging for help through 911 calls that come in every single day. And the staff turned it into a game. This is not some rogue facility. This is the system working exactly as this administration designed it. Overcrowded by policy. Underfed by neglect. Understaffed by choice. They built a place where human beings deteriorate and then the people paid to watch over them place bets on who breaks first. The AP has the data. The recordings. The interviews. The court filings. This is documented. This is real. This is happening right now in El Paso, Texas, in the United States of America. Share this. Do not let them bury it under another news cycle.

@SenAdamSchiff Today's illegal conduct.

Trump voted by mail this year. He doesn’t want you to be able to do the same. Why? Because he knows his party is going to lose. This unconstitutional executive order will not stand up in court. And it will not stop the accountability that is coming.

A war you don't want, paid for by (more) cuts to your health care.

@MoundLore @AmandaChadburn Not a stonehenge, a circle of wood posts. Woodhenge is part of Cahokia, not outside it. Cahokia's reconstructed woodhenge is just one of the wood post circles amidst the surviving Cahokia mounds. Cahokia Mounds Photo Gallery: jqjacobs.net/archaeo/cahoki…

Woodhenge and it’s builders would like a word….

@vintagemapstore Imagine how different this would look if all the area had the same population density. Arizona 7.5 million, Phoenix metro 4.8 million, and Tucson over half a million. Navajo Nation has six people per square mile.

Arizona voting precincts and Arizona Native American reservations.

@steadystate2025 Motivated by three things, money, money, money.

Against a backdrop of Trump threatening to “take the oil,” hinting at seizing Kharg, and timing Iran announcements around market hours, the Hegseth news is not an isolated ethics lapse. It looks like an administration that treats war, oil and markets as one integrated portfolio. zurl.co/KFDm9

"I will commit war crimes and kill lots of people" is not how you negotiate peace.

NEWS MAGA extremists are working behind closed doors to rip away healthcare to fund Trump’s reckless war in Iran. Shameless. Vote them all out in November.

@Adrian_Fontes Oregonian here, we have all vote by mail, best in nation voting system and turnout.

Great morning with veterans for Fontes and voters across the valley talking about protecting vote-by-mail. As long as I’m Secretary of State you’ll never have to stand in long lines to cast your vote.

@RpsAgainstTrump Are those demons on the couch with you now?
